Ok, questions of staff and then to the now 19 amendments.

This is kinda why I stopped, there just isn't much . . .

4 meetings, 3 tonight

The press virtually ignores them, but they do some interesting and important things. When you can figure out what they are doing ....

Passing along an update on how you can report flooding damage, why its important to report and what might happen if you do report it.

Unless . . . .

Last week of the summer . . . already? Wow.

So, here we go . . . mostly live blogged . . .

The meeting was a little over 5 hours long, I wasn't even in town for the first 2 and a half hours, but I tivo'd it, so here's what I got.

You know the routine . . . the "weekly schedule" is anything but . . .

Hint "more flexibility" = more money in developer pockets while taking away the "benefits" we get, mostly in the form of roads and infrastructure to support the developers building that if TIF doesn't pay for, will need to be paid for by borrowing and we pay it back, with interest. Also, the great benefit we get is added taxes that will help pay for services - except by the time this trickles down to the community services budget - the benefit is barely recognizable and definitely not realizable - it just gets lost in the budget. Hope to see people there tonight saying why we shouldn't leave the candy store wide open.<

Here's another one, still from Monday, but I am getting closer to getting them all done - I had technical difficulties and no time!
